Camping: Sedili II

Yesterday ummi(Waffa), ibrahim, fatimah and ruqayyah went to the camp site again.  They could not go through the beach as water level is too high.  AlhamduliLlah they arrived at camp site safely last night (10 pm) thru alternative route.  This morning I called Waffa but was told Papa, Mama and Waffa had gone out to town.  So I called Papa's phone, immediately he told me, Ibrahim is ok, and they are on the way to clinic..  Wait a minute, nobody told about no trip to a clinic or what not.


From Waffa, I was informed that Ibrahim had jump in the water very early in the morning.  After a while, one of his cousin had ran to the beach, and he follows.  A few second later, Ibrahim had ran back to the camp site, crying loudly while holding his hand up.  Clearly he was in a cruxciating pain.  I do not think he is smiling then.. His palm had swollen from wrist up.  Apparently he hold a blue jelly fish like creature in his hand, before the pain had registered in.

Unfortunately, today is Sunday.  All clinic is closed.  Immediately I called, Mat Deris, who is our tekong in kuala sedili.  He was sleeping, and luckily he did not gone out to the sea today.  Very quickly he went to the gov clinic and call upon the staff nurse to  open the clinic to treat my son.  Thankfully, in a small town like Sedili Besar, you can that.  Ibrahim was well treated and off they go to camp site again.  But I must say a BIG THANKS to Mat Deris,  I owe him one..

I don't know what else they do at camp site this time around.  But last time we had our hand full with clearing a clog river.  We started with breakfast early in the morning, after which they will jump into the water immediately.


  Sometimes last year, there was a very high tide situation which had caused lots or rubbish and logs from the sea flow into the river.  When the tide subsided and the water flow back into the sea, together with the logs and rubbishes.  But the hollow path of the river had caused the logs to get stuck and form a barrier with lots of rubbish clogged at the barrier.

So the water flow had been filtered by all rubbish before it reach the children playing area.  The water seems to be clean but sight of the rubbish is not tolerable at all.

We decided to clear up the blockage and allow the rubbish thru.  It is hard work actually, we are doing logging activity.  Fortunately we had a small chain saw to help us out, with lots of bare hand and bare bones strenght.

 After the logging activity, I can not move my back.  It was my turn to sleep like a log ha ha ha..
